My Latest Ebay Bargain

Morning all, I hope you  are all well, I am feeling a bit sluggish again this morning and  once again it has taken me all morning to accomplish nothing lol. Although I did have a very nice surprise this morning when I popped over to  Jacque's Blog to have a look at what she had been up to, I saw that I  was picked out in the random thingy to win a gorgeous Magnolia stamp from the Sunday Sensations  giveaway that Jacque runs for Magnolia-licious, which was a really nice pick me  up when I was feeling not so good. Thank you Jacque.

Ok so on to my make and my latest ebay bargain, I have a tag to  show you today using the fantastic stamp of Tilda with the Koala which I picked up on ebay for less than a tenner including postage.

I would like to enter  my tag in to the following challenges,
Totally Tilda  Challenges- Challenge # 40 - Tilda With A Hat On
Just Magnolia & Hanglar & Stanglar Challenge Blog - Challenge # 144 - Make A Tag
Glitter Geeks Challenge Blog - Week 7  - Girls & Boys
Crafty Bloggers Network Challenge Blog - Challenge # 14 - Shabby Chic
Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog - Simon Says .... Use 3 Different Papers





To make my tag I used an old piece of cardboard box which I  cut to shape,  3 Nitwit papers which were free with Simply  Cards & Papercraft mag just before christmas, the stamped image  is Magnolia and I coloured it in  using Promarkers. I then added the gorgeous ribbon with threads  and beads on the edge that I got from a local craft store, a chip board sentiment (sorry can't remember who it's  from) and some of my torn paper flowers. Finally I punched a hole with my screw punch and added some pale blue velvet ribbon to finish.

Thanks for reading this post, as always I would love to know what you  think

Congrats on your win Lindsay and your ebay bargain. Your tag is so pretty and I love your flowers. My wee cousin was really delighted with the goodies you sent her, thank you so much Lindsay. And my aunt was even more delighted with the Big Shot so its safely tucked away. I cant wait to see my cousins face on her birthday. Sorry to hear you are feeling sluggish today. Hopefully a wee box of goodies should have arrived to you today though. Lee xx
